I The Pageland Journal July 26.1916 ' ? Local News Mr. Preston Autry, of Douglass, Ga., is spending two or three weeks with relatives in lower Lanes Creek township, where he formerly resided. Married on Monday night, July 17, Miss Ada Tucker to Mr. Grover Leaird by Esq. W. K. Evans. Mr. Leaird is the son of Mr. Albei t Leaird of White Store, Mrs. Leaird is a daughter of Mr. Press Tucker of Mt. Croghan. Both Mr. and Mrs. Leaird are very popular. Mr. Julius Mullis son ot Mr. and Mrs. Hampton Mullis, and Miss Etta Melton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Minor Melton, of Zoar .were married Sunday afternoon at 7:30 at the home of the bridegroom's parents four miles northwest of Pageland by Esq. G. M. Rodgers. Tom Ash wood, of McBee, was one of the five negroes who lost their lives in the Catawba river when the Southern railroad bridge near Belmont washed away several days ago. None of these bodies have been found. One other white body is also missing. The Threatt bridge over Lvnches river on the road from Jefferson to Kershaw is to be rebuilt at an early date. The Blakenev bridge is being repaired. A bridge near Mr. David Cato's home known as the Tram bridge is soon to be replaced also. In this way communication across the river will soon be established. Quite a lot of tall and mighty cussin was done by travelers who were obliged to pay fifty cents and a dollar to be carried across the Catawba river at Mt. Holly and other points or swim while the bridges were down. Men and boys made big money running boats across the river. One boy stated that he made $47 by {he middle of the afternoon one day.

This bridge was on a road which was formerly a public road but which is now a private road and the expense of replacing the bridge or making a ford falls on individuals. Mr. and Mrs. Morris Haney, of Marshville township, and Rev. E. C. Snider, of Wingate, spent Thursday at the home of Mr. R. H. Garland four miles south of town. Mrs. Haney is a niece of Mr. Garland's mother, Mrs. Flora Garland, and these two aged ladies had not met since 1801. Mrs Garland is 76 years old, and Mrs. Haney is a few years younger. This paper is asked to say that every member of Pageland Bap tist church is urgently r en nested to attend a business meeting of the church tomorrow (Thursday) night. Action upon a very important matter is to be taken, and it is desirable that every member be present, as well as any others who may be interested. If you don't want the church moved to a site nearly a mile from where it is now, attend this meeting. Bids for the construction of a new bridge over Lynches river at Cooke's mill will be heard toI _ 1 /t- - uay hi uuoii, anu me contract give i. Chesterfield and Lancas ter counties bear the expense equally. The new bridge is to be four feet higher and several feet longer than the old one and the mud sills are to be pinned to the rock at the bottom of the river. A meeting was held there Monday in regard to the requirements. Three hundred and twentytwo names have been enrolled on the Democratic club roll for Pageland precinct. This is quite an increase over the old list, which shows that the voters here expect to exercise their right to the ballot. The books closed yesterday. "Bob" is dead. Bob was Mr. P. H. Evans* beloved dog. He was well known about Pageland, and his master's fondness for him was not an infrequent subject of conversation. Recent Iv Mr. Evans accepted the po sition of policeman at McBee and moved there, carrying Bob along. The change of location did not agree with his Dogship and he began to pine away. He was buried with the proper formalities, and this paper is not in formed as to whether or not Mr. Evans is in mourning;. Personals Mr. J. V.
